)4Plnin Hcjl," Sergeant Zint-
.merman Describes Horrors
of Rescue During Shelling
Tho horrors of rcmcvlng hundreds of
wounded men from an evacuation hos
pltal being shelled by tho Germans aro
vividly related In a letter to Mrs. "W. II,
Zimmerman, of Lnnsdalc, from her son.
Sergeant William Zimmerman, In serv
Ico with tho field hospital of tho Srventy
nlnth Division.
"Plain hell," Is tho manner In which
ho described tho work of removing tho
Injured through a sea of V'rench mud,
with enemy shells breaking nil around,
nnd tho wounded left behind for a futuro
trip begging that they be taken out.
The position occupied by the hospital
was a particularly advanced one, nnd
Sergeant Zimmerman writes that tho
Gorman lines wero ptntnly visible In tho
distance. Tho fighting wns furious, and
all during the day of the baltlo a stream
or wounded filed between tho action nnd
tho hospital.
Lato In tho afternoon a German re
connoiterlng piano passed overhead, and
they suspected It meant tho shelling of
tho hospital. It did.
"If you can Imaglno a fire, or similar
panic. In ono of tho largo hospitals In
Phlladclphja, you then hao a slight Idea
of what took place," Zimmerman w rites.
"Wounded men lying around tho tents on
litters, pleading with our men to bo
carried away. Duo to tho congestion of
tho roads they had to bo carried cither
on litters or on our back, and most ot
It was dono tho latter vvhj After two
hours of tho hardest kind of work wo
evacuated tho hospital and moved what
Uttlo material wo rould back to a llttlo
noods on tho other side of tho road, but
most of tho equipment wis shot to
oleccs.
"Ono of tho majors nnd I wero among
tho last to leave. This was about 8.30
in the cenlng. It vas very dark, and
wo all vvero plastered with mud. I had
to leavo all my personal equipment there
on tho Held, nnd when 1 returned tho
next morning It was gone. This left mo
with all my worldly possessions on my
back, but this made llttlo difference, as
I was still above tho ground, and that's
what really counts in tills war."
